Strategic observation

caplightresearch.com carries significant BrandTax that is likely impacting marketing efficiency and brand recall. The domain contains orthographic friction (dense consonant cluster "ghtr", silent letters in "ght") — research on positional letter frequency norms (Treiman & Kessler and Ziegler et al.) shows these patterns increase misspelling rates and slow recognition, reducing type-in accuracy.
